One of the Best Movies I've Seen!

Rating: 10/10 (16 April 2001)

Like many others who have posted comments, I had never heard of this movie but since we were just hanging around on a Sunday with our new digital cable, we had already watched 2 movies and this was the next one up. It looked intriguing.
Not even 15 minutes into the film and we were hooked. I will probably order the video so we can watch it again.
It is one of the most finely acted movies I have seen and the music was wonderful. It had a real 1900's flavor to it and you could just imagine yourself on this ship on your way to Europe with the fine dining and dancing, the stylish clothes and the wonderful piano playing.
As others have said, this was the film I expected Titanic to be. We cared so deeply for the character 1900, in spite of his flaws, or perhaps because of them and by the end, we were moved to tears.
We rarely watch today's movies...I, in particular, am devoted to the old movies...so I was glad to see that someone still makes a film with multi-level characters you can care about and an interesting storyline.
